Ok, there are two types of broken links.

1. Where the link isn't working because it doesn't include the
"community" part of the URL. This should have been fixed after the move,
but apparently was not. As a workaround, click More Actions -> Delete
Cache on the page where the links aren't working, and they should start
working again.
2. Where the page isn't there because it wasn't marked with
CategoryDocumentation.

We need your help with 2. If you see a page that should be there, but
isn't, please:

1. Move the content from the old wiki to the new wiki.
2. Replace the old page with "#REFRESH 0 url/of/new/page" (without the
quotes)

Only move pages which are documentation. If there are broken links to
pages which are not documentation, just fix the link. If you are unsure
about whether a page should be moved or not, ask here.
